Overall Rating

The Galapagos Island component of the tour was fantastic! The boat (MY Pelikano) and its crew, and the guide Carlos were fabulous. The Andes component of the tour was also excellent as was the guide Daniela. Couldn't have asked for a better experience, or better travelling companions on both parts of the tour.
